How about I take a 2.5hr drive up to Lawrence (actually the way I drive, might be 1.5 hr) and you can show me some tips and trades on the correct way of washing, prepping, waxing the car ?
lol

I'm no show car expert, but I know to use a chamois, name brand products, and your very soul to treat it right.

The name for the Camaro is inspired by the idea of close friendship. The idea of treating it with any less devotion than you expect for your own self is blasphemy against this particular machine. It will be my buddy. It will take me through my hard times and my easy times. It will help me celebrate my successes and endure my failures. It will sustain my very identity. I can do nothing less than treat it like my best friend in good conscience.

If you do come to Lawrence, then give me a good heads up. We've got a good college town here that everyone should experience.
